Alive...


Greetings to you all. I am sorry to say that it has taken me this long to get on my computer and blog...but lets just put it this way. Today, I pulled my blinds for the first time in three weeks, because it was the first time I was here in the day light in three weeks...I wanted to blog about our great weekend visiting Spencer and Sarah in Bamfield (that was two weeks ago) then I wanted to blog about the Greek fest (that was last weekend) and now here I am...and all I have to blog about is weekends. Bamfield was amazing. We spent the weekend hiking around and cooking. We even got to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving...that was great! We saw three bears, a bunch of eagles and lots of great starfish.

Last weekend, we had the Greek fest which was a blast and went super well. Other then that I have mainly just gone to meetings. Oh, well last night was the school carnival and I did make over 200 snow cones which was very fun! Needless to say it has just been busy. I keep praying it will slow down so I have big hopes. My greetings to you all especially Chrissy who I was supposed to call back a week ago, Sarah Glathar who I was supposed to email three weeks ago, my mother who I wanted to go see two weeks ago, my brother who I havn't talked to in days, Kendra who lives 10 minutes away and I haven't seen in weeks, Melinda who is back from her honeymoon, Jess who's blog I haven't even been able to check, Megan who I haven't called back all week...hmmm should I go on...Oh you too Kels...congrats on graduating...hope to talk to you all soon...or at least in April when I am not president anymore! :) Be sure to check out our Bamfield pics on the web album http://picasaweb.google.com/misswood23

A Great Weekend!


We had a great weekend. As you can see above, one part of the weekend was a trip to the waterpark with Sam. Corvallis's water park has an end of the season dog party before draining their pools. Lucas and I were a little hesitant, not knowing what it would be like, but it was a blast! Sam about freaked out when he saw ALL of the dogs and WATER! Oh my gosh, what else is there, except maybe a pool full of food! :) Anyway, the whole thing was an absolute riot, unfortunately the pics aren't very good because he never stayed in one place long to take a picture. There was way too many friends and too much to do to waste time on a photo-op. This event will now be a permanent on our event calendar, as I am sure it is on Sam's too!

We also went to a wedding. My very good friend Melinda and Jeff were married this weekend and it was great! We had a wonderful time dancing with lots of old friends and catching up on all the news!

Now, we are getting ready to head up to Canada on Friday to see Spencer. With Spencer and Sarah preparing to move around Christmastime we want to get up to Bamfield one more time!

Hope you are having a great week so far! Be sure to look on the web album at the swim party pics! http://picasaweb.google.com/misswood23
